Has the MadYank broken the HU record?

yeah i believe he did hallucinating his way through it Wink

He couldn't actually break the record, as there has never been a previous record set. The existing record of 72+odd hours is actually for STT play (which IMO must have been far easier) So Ron's will be the first official HU for the books.

Well done Ron, I have a little idea of what it must have been like lol.

Yes!!! Hurrah for the MadYank, who looks like he may be seeing through time and space right now, but is playing until he can play no more, setting a truly tough record to beat...

Book me, and I will come

Hey I just listened to the first track on there and it sounded great to this old hippy/blueslover.

I'm definitely coming to the next gig near me. Are you related to Dr. John ?   Roll Eyes

Here's a rather frighteningly close-up photo of Ariston for you - he's sat right by the rail and collared me on the way to the back-right quadrant... sitting with 11,000, this has not been the result of slow start-of-comp play, but he said "I've had three times, KsKd once, lost on them all.  Then I see a flop with , flop the nut flush, and get my chips back."

Is it actually being measured in centimetres in moustache length ?

To be honest, I wouldn't recommend that even Ron try that one - he's gently swaying now and says, "I feel fine!" but I don't think this is the time for a 12-hour deepstack marathon.... lol

Here's Kevin O'Connell in rather exciting Von Dutch hat, with double chip-stack-protector ducks(?).  N.B.  Guests - you must be logged in to see my oh-so-exciting photos...

He was setting a record, not breaking one. If I remember this rightly, it was Guinness that stated the 72 hours (I may be slightly wrong on that) but as I said that previous record was for an stt (far less mentally demanding)

Ron's attempt has been quite different in some respects, James was only allowed a break every for hours, whether he wanted it or not, Ron has been allowed hourly breaks, and even allowed to store them up to have a snooze!

Not trying to take anything away from Ron at all, but if James had tried under the conditions that have be granted to Ron, I have no doubt in my mind that he would have made it.

Yes, but if James was setting a record, rather than breaking one, then surely his 66 hours should be in Guinness... that's how I see it, anyway.

Keep the 72 hours in the STT category and then put Flush in as inaugural HU record holder.

Thass'all I's sayin...
